Guardian Camera Club: Rajeevan Kumarathasan on summer events

The Notting Hill Carnival can be a great day out for a street photographer, there's always a whole lot of stuff going on. But here we get the feeling that we've seen all these photos before. There's nothing wrong with shooting the obvious of course, it has to be done, but it's always worth looking behind the façade, and finding some more original views. On a more positive note, these are good images, well observed, colorful, but they're just too ordinary!
